A compilation of functions to create visually appealing and information-rich plots of meta-analytic data using 'ggplot2'. Provides functions to create forest plots, funnel plots, and many of their variants, including rainforest plots, thick forest plots, additional evidence contour funnel plots, and sunset funnel plots. In addition, functionalities for visual inference with funnel plots in the context of meta-analysis are provided. Further functionalities include plots for comparing fixed-effect and random-effects models and dedicated visualizations for three-level meta-analysis.
